I disagree that the gameplay will be updated as it’s a remaster eg better textures resolution and frame rate not a remake and i doubt they even bother fixing the bugs . But I will still be buying it lol .i wouldn’t worry about playing the 3rd one first , although you might find this has quite dated cluncky controls in comparison it makes up for it by having the best world and story

From what I read the remaster is running on the DS3/Bloodborne engine.

I could be wrong as I haven’t read anything but changing engine would require rebuilding the entire game and even changing attack patterns of some mobs as the attacks are based on a lot slower simpler system and just wouldn’t work on a revised engine . Can’t see them putting this much work in when they are making 3 other games and don’t really want to work on ds anymore and they would surely sell it on being a remake on a new engine

Dark Souls II was no Dark Souls, but in my opinion, an amazing game. Brilliant boss fights - Encountering Elana for the first time in NG+ (rather than New Game) was one of the toughest and encounters for me and the most satisfying when beaten - and some outstanding locations. Many fond memories of unwrapping the Black Armour Edition and discovering Majula...

Such a good game I bought it for PS4 long after the PS3 version was completed (bar the final DLC fights).

All that said, Dark Souls is the best of the series and the DLC made an truly epic game even better.

This release is long overdue and at this price will be a steal. Also removes the need to keep my PS3 much longer.

Perhaps Miyazaki will give us the Lost Izalith boss he originally wanted? Fat chance!
